Our merchants are crying out
for street sprinkler. Their goods
are being damaged by the dust,
and water is the only thing that
will protect them. Many of them
is standing back thinking that it is
the duty Of the city fathers to
sprinkle the streets, while Others
are anxious for a sprinkler and are
only waiting for some one to make
amove in the matter. We have
urged it for two summers. The
dust is not only damaging to the

told the story of how she had made
the venture as follows: "For a long
time 1 was as much interested In the
lottery drawing AS If / had the lucky
numbers, but somehow or other
never could get up the courage to In
vest in the scheme. l was afraid that
l was too unlucky to get any

q party TO my friends-there was about
twenty five of us, all ladies-and dur
ing the evening the question oflottery
tickets came up. More out of fun than
anything else We proposed to get up a
pool and buy some tickets. We were
not all willing to join, but after some
talk we made up u pool of $50. Well,
the April drawing won US $40. We
put IL all In again and in May we got
the tenth of sl5O,OOO. That gives US
$3.50 apiece, which, l think is a big
return for our investment. You ough,

the party, and who laughed at us for
buying lottery tickets. They are just
as mad as mad can be. We are going
to keep on and try our luck again In

are prizes TO be won."
